I made yarn! I did a spinning class at my LYS. I was right to be worried, I really enjoy it. I managed to spin up and ply all the fibre they gave us with the class. No pictures, because it’s gotten dark now. I will take some pics tomorrow of it. I also bought some yarn. Bad Heather.

I bought yarn for Eunny’s Endpaper Mits. Gorgeous-yet-deceptively-simple-(I-think) pattern? Check. Delightfully-geeky-and-bookish-name? Check.
I bought two sock yarns, which again, will be photographed tomorrow, one skein of a greeny Ultramerino, and one skein of Fortissima Socka. The green is slightly variagated, but I think think the blue is darker than any shade in the green, so the pattern should still show well. I hope. That’s the plan, anyway. I’m facinated with doign colour work with variagated or semi-solid as one yarn, and a solid as the other.

I’ll cast on tomorrow, or once Eunny has her tips up. Even though I really should work on that sweater.
